Dear Sweet Filthy World
Dear sweet filthy world, my wife or whoever reads this
I think that Ive lived too long
With all of my promise unfulfilled
But there is a veil drawn over all of that
I know youll probably say, spare us the melodrama
I dont know how he chose the pills or the stupid revolver
Im out of luck
Im not that strong
My hands, your neck
I might have wrung
Dont try to find me
Im not worth anything anymore
I am not leaving you with all of your problems
The biggest one is me
Life is dark
Cold as the sea
Embrace me in my anguish
Put seaweed in my hair and vow that you wont cry because
Ive gone
I cant go on, I cant go on, I cant go on
I must close now

Even In The Quietest Moments
Even in the quietest moments
I wish I knew what I had to do
And even though the sun is shining
Well I feel the rain --- here it comes again, dear
And even when you showed me
My heart was out of tune
For theres a shadow of doubt thats not letting me find you too soon
The music that you gave me
The language of my soul
Oh lord, I want to be with you.
Wont you let me come in from the cold?
Dont you let the sun fade away
Dont you let the sun fade away
Dont you let the sun be leaving
Wont you come to me soon
And even though the stars are listening
And the oceans deep, I just go to sleep
And then I create a silent movie
You become the star, is that what you are, dear?
Your whisper tells a secret
Your laughter brings me joy
And a wonder of feeling Im natures own little boy
But still the tears keep falling
Theyre raining from the sky
Well theres a lot of me got to go under before I get high
Dont you let the sun disappear
Dont you let the sun disappear
Dont you let the sun be leaving
No, you cant be leaving my life
Say that you wont be leaving my life
Say that you wont be leaving my life
Say wont you please, stay wont you please
Say wont you please, stay wont you please
Lord, wont you come and get into my life
Lord, wont you come and get into my life
Say wont you please, stay wont you please
Say wont you please, stay wont you please
Lord, dont go
And even when the song is over
Where have I been --- was it just a dream?
And though your door is always open
Where do I begin --- may I please come in, dear?

Cant Cry These Tears
I just dont care anymore
Ive reached the end of the road
I just dont care anymore
Wont cry these tears anymore
Cant find it in the bible
Cant find it on tv
Cant find it in diamonds
Theres something inside me that just wont allow me to
Find it in music
Cant find it in my soul
Cant find it in chocolate
Oh babe I cant hide it
I cant even find it in you
Theres no way she can kiss you
The way that I do
I heard that you miss me
Oh you should be careful of who you keep talking to
Long nights without you have taught me to be strong
Ive cut all my losses
Think no more about it cause I couldnt find it in you
There was a time I thought Id die
If you should ever leave me high and dry
Now you dont want me any more
Its time to settle the score
I just dont care anymore
Ive reached the end of my tether
Ive torn all your letters up
I just dont care anymore
Wont cry these tears anymore
I just dont care anymore
Ive reached the end of my rope
And its time that I told you so
I just dont care anymore
Wont cry these tears anymore

If It Dont Take Two
It takes two to tango
And two lips to seal a kiss
But a flame and a candle
Wont burn on a night like this
If it dont take two
It takes two to go one way
And two winds to be strong enough
But you cant sail on a still day
Like two ships on a sea of love
If it dont take two
Noah knew what he had to do
Ooh oh yeah
He sent us out in the world walkin two by two
Oh...
If it dont take two
If it dont take two
If it dont take two
And if Im not with you
No it aint worth goin through
If it dont take two
It takes two hearts with one beat
And it takes two to say I do
But the champagne wont taste sweet
And the dream just wont come true
If it dont take two
Noah knew what he had to do, oh yeah
He sent us out in the world walkin two by two, me and you
If it dont take two
If it dont take two
If it dont take two
And if Im not with you
No it aint worth goin through
If it dont take two
He sent us out in the world walkin two by two
Me and you
Baby...
If it dont take two
If it dont take two
If it dont take two
And if Im not with you
No it aint worth goin through
If it dont take two
If it dont take two
If it dont take two
If it dont take two
And if Im not with you
No it aint worth goin through
If it dont take two

Please Dont Let It Go
Were drifting apart,
But I wont give up, no
Wherever you are I belong
Love sings us a song
But we fail to sing along
Wherever you go I will follow
So please dont let it
Please dont let it go
And if you wont let it I wont let it go
Please dont let it
Please dont let it go
And if you wont let it I wont let it go
You try to be strong
Youve tried it oh so long
Whatever I do I do it wrong
And love sings our song
So eager to sing along
Whatever you do I know it
So please dont let it
Please dont let it go
Cause if you wont let it I wont let it go
Please dont let it
Please dont let it go
Cause if you wont let it I wont let it go
Dont let go of life
Let go of love
Let go of all we have
So dont let go of trust
Let go of lust
Let go of all we share
So please dont let it
Please dont let it go
And if you wont let it I wont let it go
Please dont let it
Please dont let it go
And if you wont let it I wont let it go
So please dont let it
Please dont let it go
Cause if you wont let it I wont let it go
Please dont let it
Please dont let it go
Cause if you wont let it I wont let it go

Youll Never Stand Alone
If theres a time when the fears should fill your eyes
And you cant see past thge shadows
To the sun on the other side
Dont despair, vecause there always will be
Someone there

Illhold you when you cry

When you cant find the strength inside
And you, youll always have a home
In these arms of mine
Youll never stand alone
Love is standing by
If theres a dayt when the rain should find your heart
And youre cold and tried and lonely
And this would has you in the dark
Dont be scared, you can just reach for me and Ill be there
Dont lose hope, love will see you through you know
Because

Illhold you when you cry

When you cant find the strength inside
And you, youll always have a home

Standing by to life you above all the hurt and pain
Standing by to carry you through all the tears and ain
Reach for me, Ill be with you
Reach for me, Ill see you through

Small Talk
Dont talk back to me, dont talk back to me
Dont talk back to me, dont talk
Going round in circles, hearing too many points of view
Just words to tire me out, small talk I could do without
I would be amazed if you returned to see things my way
Now that youve been disrespectful to my sense of pride
Isnt it a shame that you were lying when you said to me (small talk)
I was the only one, you and I were meant to be
I expect youll never really feel the way that I do
All of this is with regret, Im sure you will agree
Say something to me, anything at all
I want you to mean what you say
Ive seen all I want to see, and you mean the world to me
Ive lived for each moment to be with you, with you, with you
Small talk, small talk, small talk, small talk
You say I dont talk enough, that applies to both of us
Dont try to sound me out, something I could do without
So much goes on inside your head, I often wonder
Have you heard enough to know, theres nothing left to say
Say something to me, anything at all
I want you to mean what you say
Ive seen all I want to see, and you mean the world to me
Ive lived for each moment to be with you, with you, with you
Small talk
Small talk
Ooh small talk
Thats all I ever hear
Small talk
Ill be alright
It may take sometime
But Ill be alright (dont talk back to me)
Ill be alright (dont talk back to me) (dont want to be alone, nothing worth to carry on)
Ill be alright (dont talk back to me) (try hard to understand, you wont seem to lend a hand)
Ill be alright (dont talk back to me) (without youll fail to see, you never spare a thought for me)
Ill be alright (dont talk back to me) (so many things you said, going round in circles)
Ill be alright (dont talk back to me) (Ill rise above it all, enough to see another day)
Ill be alright
Ill be alright
Dont talk back to me...

I Dont Care Anymore
Well you can tell evryone Im a down disgrace
Drag my name all over the place.
I dont care anymore.
You can tell evrybody bout the state Im in
You wont catch me crying cos I just cant win.
I dont care anymore I dont care anymore
I dont care what you say
I dont play the same games you play.
cos Ive been talking to the people that you call your friends
And it seems to me theres a means to and end.
They dont care anymore.
And as for me I can sit here and bide my time
I got nothing to lose if I speak my mind.
I dont care anymore I dont care no more
I dont care what you say
We never played by the same rules anyway.
I wont be there anymore
Get out of my way
Let me by
I got better things to do with my time
I dont care anymore I dont care anymore
I dont care anymore I dont care anymore
Well, I dont care now what you say
cos evry day Im feeling fine with myself
And I dont care now what you say
Hey Ill do alright by myself
cos I know.
cos I remember all the times I tried so hard
And you laughed in my face cos you held all the cards.
I dont care anymore.
And I really aint bothered what you think of me
cos all I want of you is just a let me be.
I dont care anymore dyou hear? I dont care no more
I dont care what you say
I never did believe you much anyway.
I wont be there no more
So get out of my way.
Let me by
I got better things to do with my time
I dont care anymore
Dyou hear? I dont care anymore
I dont care no more
You listening? I dont care no more
No more!
You know I dont care no more!

Expose to lose your ground

Youll never get it
Perhaps we live in peradise
And maybe noone cares
Miricles everyday, everywhere
All the little fates you dont see
Ill never let them down

Last Boat Leaving
Hush my little one dont cry so
You know your daddys bound to go
They took his pride
They took his voice
Dont upset him now, dont make a noise
They said youre lucky son youve still got a choice
Last boat leaving
Dont waste your tears
Its not as if Im in chains
I dont want to go now, it would be better for
You, too, if I dont look back when we sail
Hush my dear, while I whisper it in your ear
Were not going to sail tonight
Were going to disappear
And it feels like a punishment, but I dont know what for
Take care of your mother, son, its you that she adores
cos no matter how long we sail well never reach the shore
Last boat leaving
So dry your tears
Its not as if Im in chains
When you go to school, son, youll read my story in history books
Only they wont mention my name
So hush now, my darling, my sweet little one
I hope that you never have to do what Ive done
Do you know what Ive done?
Why Im going away? on the last boat leaving this stinking town
Its the last boat leaving, its the last boat leaving
Youve had my innocence, youve had my heartbreak
Youve taken the place where I once belonged
Now what more can you take?

Stupid
So sad to hear that you dont want to hang around with me
So lame to see you leave and to know that you believe that its over
Cause when your weak I feel the need to get underneith your skin
And when you start to tweak I find a way to get up beside you
Stupid, stupid, stupid
Stupid, stupid, stupid
In time youll learn to love me as much as you love yourself
Oh in time youll learn to hate me
Cause when I feel the need to have you back by my side
I am sweet it makes me sick to know that I can be so blind

Welcome to the dream hotel

Lost in the funhouse

Wherever youre going Ill swim and find you

Did you whisper my name
Or did you shout it

Close Escape
That was a close escape, have to get a new hobby to relate.
Something less conspicuous, wont take up too much time,
Something less energetic, for what Ive got in mind.
I wont be too persistant cos Im not that way inclined.
See, thats the one for me. look under collins see if shes free.
Sweaty fingers find 5p 4151683
Hello miss collins youll not know me. Im in the undies
Buisness, see? please please can you tell me the size; how
Far from the knee?
Oh dear dear, me luck is running thin.
Ill take another name I might have a win.
What? 2 more points? I hope no one fills it in.
See, thats the one for me. look under dickens cfg.
See if shell speak to me. hands get shakey eyes cant see.

Hello miss dickens youll not know me, Im in the undies

Hoi! no temporaries Ive heard most take me in.
Oh dear dear me, that is the one it fits.
So please please can you tell me the textured fit feels good to me.
In the naked mood, try to grin and bear with me.
Please dont think me rude, I only hear dont want to see.
See, thats the one for me. that was quick, too quick for me.
Of that I can see, wash me laundry oh bugger me!
Sugar or milk with your tea? no I couldnt, well Ill see.
Whats your hobby? just the same as me, see you soon for tea.
Ill give it one last chance I think youll all agree.

Life Shrinks
Shall I wear a buttonhole to jog your memory?
So youll recall the promise
That I swore you made to me when we were younger
You look sorry for yourself but what about?
Im some idea youre not without a doubt
So you can put away that tongue
I dont know who Im trying to kid
Ill find another name for you
Ill try to put the blame on you
For everything we did
Life shrinks and before you know it
You have forgotten all the cuts and bruises
Just be thankful we were only fighting for buttons
And you know by now who loses
Youre only half awake because you never go to bed
And when he hears about it
You know then the both of yous is dead and thats a promise
Youll be sorry because I wont tell you again
Youll stick like that one day
And if you dont believe me go and ask st. thomas
I dont know where its going to stop
Spend your whole time trying to stay
From breaking down or running away
Or trying to keep up

Drinkin and thinkin bout you
Is there anything left at all
Is there anything that I can do

Starin hard at that big front door
Is it time now to find my shoes

Maybe some day
I need never be alone

Its the right way
But youll never be the one
Ive been walking alone
For a long long, long time
I dont wanna hang out now
With the folks that just dont mind
While you party
Youve been looking
But your searching never ends
Youve been saying
With the wrong crowd
Youve got all the right friends

Dont Try Too Hard
Words and music by queen
If youre searching out for something
Dont try so hard
If youre feeling kinda nothing
Dont try so hard
When your problems seem like mountains
You feel the need to find some answers
You can leave it for another day
Dont try so hard
But if you fall and take a tumble it wont be far
If you fail you mustnt grumble
Thank your lucky stars
Just savour every mouthful
And treasure every moment
When the storms are raging round you
Stay right where you are
Oh dont try so hard
Oh dont take it all to heart
Its only fools they make these rules
Dont try so hard
One day youll be a sergeant major
Oh youll be so proud
Screaming out your bloody orders
Hey but not too loud
Polish all your shiny buttons
Dress as lamb instead of mutton
But you never had to try to stand out from the crowd
Oh what a beautiful world
This is the life for me
Oh what a beautiful world
Its the simple life for me
Oh dont try so hard
Oh dont take it all to heart

Dont Keep Me In The Dark
Words and music:: austin roberts, james dunne, mike reno
Oh what an illumination love can be
Open up your eyes to its light and you will see
You did that for me, you opened up my eyes
Then extraordinary changes started happening to me
My temperature would rise and fall inside of me
Words came naturally, you were more than I could fantasize
And Ill never know, why someones heart wants to die
If you ever need, if you need to tell me goodbye
Dont keep me in the dark
Silence wont protect you
If youre gonna leave
You got to let me know
Dont keep me in the dork
Tell me when its over
You tear my world apart
When you keep me in the dark
I cant put my finger on what might have been
Any more than I con say when the love will end
But time and time again
I realize youre all I need to know
Youll still be part of the hole in my heart and my soul
But if our love should ever lose its control
Dont keep me in the dark
Silence wont protect you
If youre gonna leave
You got to let me know
Dont keep me in the dark
Tell me when its over
Youll tear my world apart
If you keep me in the dark
Dont keep me in the dark
Silence wont protect you
If youre gonna leave
You got to let me know
Dont keep me in the dark
Tell me when its over
You tear my world apart
When you keep me in the dark
Dont keep me in the dork
Oh no, dont keep me in the dark

The Stranger
Stranger, I know where youll find her
Down the road from here
About a mile and a quarter
Youll know the place by a chucky barn
Stands in the field by a run-down farm by a pond
Filled up with stagnant water
Then youll see a shack nearby youll ask yourself
I wonder why it looks so cold and lifeless all around
Chimney rocks are falling out
It looks as though the fires gone out on the biggest part
Where the house is rutted down.
No stranger, I aint seen you lately
She dont come around near like she used to
You got a picture in your mind: pretty, gentle, sweet and kind
You practiced every word youre gonna say
Youll call her name but she wont hear you
Shes in the graveyard near you
She died ten years ago last May.
There was a man she talked about
I meant she had to live without
Years ago, he just turned and left one day
He left her with an unborn child
And her love for him will never die
And an aching heart sent her to an early grave.
Yes, stranger I know who you are
I recognize you from afar
But you aint never seen me not one time
Yes, I know that youre my dad
From pictures that my mamma had
And it was me and mamma that you left behind.
Stranger, you will find me there
In peaceful sleep on yonder hill
Where we once walked as I do still
To pick her flowers from the field.
Mamma dont need you anymore
And I dont need you like before
You can go on back to where you went before
Youre just a stranger...
